2008-11-02 Thread Scott Ritchie
Things are as they should be in Intrepid - /etc/sysctl.conf is now a bunch of (commented out) commands for overriding the defaults, and the system defaults are in names like /etc/sysctl.d/10-*.conf. This allows Wine to come after them by using just /etc/sysctl.d/wine.conf ** Changed in: procps

I'm partially confused by this bug. I wound up here in the process of filing Bug #292470. It's my observation that in Intrepid final, procps sources /etc/sysctl.conf *first*, which means it is being overridden by /etc/sysctl.d. This is the behavior desired by the requester of this bug, but the

Are you sure this is the best fix? The idea of package defaults overriding sysadmin-specified settings makes me nervous. -- invoke-rc.d procps start loads /etc/syctl.d before /etc/sysctl.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/256025 You received this bug notification because you are a member of

Without this, there's no way to have package defaults override unmodified system defaults; the sysctl.d folder becomes essentially useless. Perhaps a more complete fix is to make it clear that manual settings should be done somewhere other than sysctl.conf when the same setting is modified by

Good point. /etc/sysctl.conf should remain the standard thing to edit for overrides. That can be done after/at the same time as this patch though. Making a new file and copying the current contents of our default sysctl.conf to it should be fairly simple. All we need to do then is put some
